m6A Regulator-Mediated Methylation Modification Patterns and Tumor Microenvironment Infiltration Characterization in Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Recent studies have demonstrated epigenetic regulation of immune responses. Nevertheless, the underlying effect of RNA N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modifications on tumor microenvironment cell infiltration remains elusive. In this study, we thoroughly assessed m6A modification patterns of 255 myeloid le...
